    LOL , Yao is the only one who deserves to be an all star , I can't believe T-Mac and Artest will get in.

    I think Artest will get i9n , Melo is injured now so that will take a few votes away from him.

    How much time left to vote?

    I hope Chris Paul moves up.

    I really cannot see McGrady in the ASG this year. If he does get it, then he better prove that he should be an allstar.

    January 19th.

    It's not so much I want Artest in, but I'm hoping this will make the NBA realize how flawed the system in.

    Ron and Tracy both need to stay at home and get some rest rather than aggravating aches and pains.

    Looks like he just moved past Dirk for a spot at the All Star Game along with Tmac and Yao

    Yea, its obvious that there is "Chinese influence" on the voting when Yi Jian Lian has more votes than Shaq, and Rafer Alston has more than zero votes.

    They should limit the amount of Online voting, and have more of Stadium Ballots.

    I'd enjoy to see a mostly houston rockets starting line for the all-star team but how many returns are there. I know the game isn't till feb 17th and I don't think I ever took note over the years of when the full votes were in. Is there only one more return.

    So is there still time to for t-mac not to get in for those who don't think he deserves it and artest get in?

    Well Melo broke his hand so he wont be playing. If there is an injury to a player voted in, who decides who starts? Is it the coaches or does the next highest vote gettter go? And ron is only 4000 behind Amare; he has a definite good shot.

    The NBA-All Stars probably have a higher rate of participation from the Chinese then most elections do for Americans.

    just sayin...we all know in our hearts that T-Mac and Ron don't really deserve their spots (Ron over Dirk, Mac over CP3?!) and well...

    Yi Jianlian (NJ) 1,216,348 votes.
